TSX.V: CPO
VANCOUVER, April 24, 2017 /CNW/ - Cobalt Power Group Inc. (the
"Company") (TSX.V: CPO) is pleased to announce that plans for its Phase 1 drill program on the Smith Cobalt project have
been finalized. Ground and airborne geophysics, along with historical mapping data and 3D modeling, were used to delineate the
targets that will be tested during the 4 to 6 week program. The approximately 1800 meter (5900 ft.) campaign, focusing on the
northwestern section of the property, will be carried out by G4 Drilling, based out of Val-d'Or,
Quebec.
The objectives of the drill program are to expand the Company's knowledge of the geological setting of the known veins that
extend from the nearby Deer Horn Mine onto the Smith Cobalt property, to extend the strike length of those veins from the
historic Smith Cobalt underground workings toward the southeast, and to confirm the values deduced from the muck pile sampling
(see news release dated January 9 th, 2017) and make initial determinations of grade and
thickness.
This phase of drilling will be carried out entirely on patented land. The Company is also initiating the permitting process
for exploration work on its unpatented claims.
Dr. Andreas Rompel, President & CEO, states, "We are excited to be moving forward into this
next stage of development on the Smith Cobalt asset with the assistance of a well-renowned drilling company. Our objective is to
maintain our exploration momentum and be the first exploration company in the Cobalt, Ontario
region to begin drilling in 2017."
In late April, management will be on the Smith Cobalt property to complete preliminary preparations for the program. The
campaign will begin once weather conditions permit.
About the Smith Cobalt Project
The Smith Cobalt project is underlain by a sequence of Archaean volcanics which are uncomformably overlain by Huronian
sediments. These formations have been intruded by the Proterozoic-age Nipissing diabase sill.
Faulting, on both a regional and local scale, has been found by surface mapping and in drill cores. Polymetallic veining, and
especially pinkish-white carbonate veins, has also been reported. Thus, all the necessary geological components of accepted
mineralization models for cobalt-silver have been identified on the properties.
